South Dakota sophomore Landon Kemp has been named the Summit League Outdoor Track and Field Athlete of the Week for the period ended April 14.
Kemp brings home the award for the first time in her career.
Hailing from Greenville, Michigan, Kemp vaulted 14 feet, 1 ¼ inches, on Saturday at the Sioux City Relays. The jump is an eight-inch personal best that moves her to 13th in the NCAA this season.
Kemp ranks third in the Summit League with the jump behind fellow Coyotes Helen Falda and Kimmy Peterson. As an event group, South Dakota is ranked No. 2 in the country for the women’s pole vault. The Coyotes have three women past 14 feet on the same roster for the first time in program history.
